'Problem Child in House' singer Lee Seung-chul boasted of his love for his children along with his life as a singer.
On the 13th, singer Lee Seung-chul appeared on the KBS2TV variety show 'Problem Child in House.' He will mark his 40th debut anniversary next year, and he said "My essence is rock spirit," noting that as a member and vocalist of Resurrection he still loves rock.
However, what made him more widely known were various ballads and R&B songs. Hong Jin Kyung asked, "When did you receive the most in copyright fees?" Lee Seung-chul said, "The 'Girls' Generation' song did well. Girls' Generation remade 'Girls' Generation,' and I received the equivalent of one foreign car a month. Besides that, the drama 'Firebird' OST 'Inyeon,' and 'Malli Flower'—I also wrote the lyrics for those," surprising everyone.
Song Eun-i asked, "Do you refuse when remake proposals come in?" Because Lee Seung-chul's name has been an all-time legend since his debut, many people love that song and it might be picky. However, Lee Seung-chul said, "I never refuse," expressing gratitude to younger artists.
On the contrary, he said, "They usually come to see me in person. But it's annoying. They could just call, why come all the way?" and added, "I'm rather happy that juniors remake my songs. It's fine as long as it does well," saying Song Eun-i could remake them too.
Lee Seung-chul had a personal celebration: his eldest daughter's wedding. Lee Seung-chul said, "Didn't I walk down the virgin road holding my daughter's hand recently? I had everything set so the music would start when the bride walked a certain distance. I was so moved that all my photos show me just before crying. But my daughter had an excited face because she was going to her groom," and he ultimately showed tears.
But Lee Seung-chul actually encouraged the marriage. He said, "Honestly, I wanted my daughter to marry quickly. The son-in-law was such a good guy. They had dated for only a year, but I felt this was the one. The son-in-law is very frugal. He only has three pairs of shoes, always goes to work at 5 a.m. to prepare for his work. He doesn't drink or smoke," he said.
He went on, "As a condition for the son-in-law, I actually said he should serve in the military and be able to drink. But the son-in-law turned out not to be someone who can't drink; his tolerance was much greater than mine. But he actually chose not to drink. I liked that so much that I allowed the marriage six months after they met," proudly praising his son-in-law. It was also revealed that his second daughter is a brilliant genius preparing for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology School of Medicine, drawing attention.
Although Lee Seung-chul has special love for his daughters and wife, he said he is cool even during adolescence and especially does not consider inheritance issues. Lee Seung-chul said, "I probably won't leave an inheritance. I don't know until I get settled, but I'll use everything and die," showing a cool attitude, adding, "my children are okay with that."
